GRANDPARENTS
DAY click to help celebrate
The
idea for Grandparents Day started with Marian McQuade, a homemaker
from West Virginia. She was an advocate for the elderly
in nursing homes when she noted that many (up to 60%) never
had a visitor. President Jimmy Carter signed the proclamation
for the holiday in 1978. Grandparents
Day will be celebrated on September 7 in 2008.
The
purpose of the holiday is to celebrate America's elderly by
providing care and compassion. Please consider making
a gift in honor or in memory of a loved one. Or join
us in the Forget-Me-Not program to remember the residents
of the homes we serve. Please click on our link above.
